what is your opinion of the balance of nature of nature hypothesis? Would the deer on the island be better off, worse off, or about the same without the wolves. Defend your position

I would say yes because they would have less predators and a safer place to live.

An example of how it wouldn't help the deer population on the island is this: The rapid population growth of the deer would mean more food is needed. However, an island would only have so much green, so they would eventually die out.
